Mission statement
Compassionate Hope is a global charitable organization focused on providing hope and a future to victims and potential victims of human trafficking and religious persecution in Southeast Asia.
We serve "the least of these"-children who are vulnerable to human trafficking and sexual exploitation.
We provide loving homes in which "at risk" children's needs are met: physical, emotional, educational, vocational, social, and spiritual. Our commitment to our children is to help them receive education and training through university, Bible college, or vocational training-thus, ending the cycle of poverty in a family that too often leads to human trafficking.
